    Now to actually comment.

    Telling developers to stop being lazy and to push out content fast is equal to saying "Please release a lot of terrible stuff. I don't care if it's good. Just release a lot of it."

    EDIT: To wit, asking to release more content fast would mean each individual thing they release has to be simple enough to have developed and deployed in a a week or two to a month.

    There is very little way to have content made and tested to be sure it even works, in such a short amount of time, unless you don't care about what the content is and just want it for the sake of having more stuff stuffed into the game.

    I believe that they work really hard to put out the amount of content that they do. There would simply be a lot less if they didn't reuse old dungeons as hard modes, it's a good way to get more mileage out content.

    The hardmode dungeons are barely the same. It's a different path, different bosses, different story reason for being there. Only the core location hasn't changed. The only thing that sucks is getting the same gear we've been seeing the whole time.

    New players shouldn't have access? Please get over yourself. It's low enough level that it doesn't matter. This part of your request screams of elitism and it is not a good thing.

    If there's anything 'lazy' in this game (aside from graphics but I'm not discussing that here) is the reuse of assets.

    Of the bosses in CT, Atamos and Acheron are the only unique mobs

    Coil is really the only source of unique monsters and bosses (even if cad isn't)

    Please SE, take time and care to designing bosses, don't just grab a lvl 20 mob, make it bigger, and slap a boss sticker on it.

    The new 4 man content added new enemies last patch. I'm assuming the same this time as well. Amdapor Township looks to be adding several bug and fungal enemy types.

    It did, no argument there, but the bosses were (mostly) reskins, Even siren was really just a yellow Garuda. yes there were some differences but it was really the same model with a slightly different skin.

    To be fair, Pharos Siren was a re-use of the Siren from story

    I'd like to know if those that think content is coming too slowly have ever been involved with software development, and if so, to what degree.

    I guarantee they haven't. If they had they'd talk out their rear ends a whole lot less.

    --------------
    Interesting question. Here's mine: I'd love to know the timeline of the design and development, I'm sorry, re-development of the current version of the game we are now playing. Then I'd be able to make a more balanced and informed opinion about justification of why apparently there 'just hasn't been enough TIME yet to produce fresh content'. We both know that info is not going to be divulged.

    What is available though is the playerbase voicing questions and being disappointed who have reasonably been questioning the rehash of 'new content'.
